This is an age of specialization—in which m an, focusing a tte n ­
tion, concentrates upon one objective. Doctors, for instance, no longer
a re general p ra ctitio n ers: one devotes him self exclusively to diseases
of the skin, a nother to the eyes, a third to the feet—and so on, ad
infinitum . The sam e th in g is tru e of the butcher, the baker and the
candlestick m aker. Even the ladies are specialists. Blondes specialize
in glam our: b ru n ettes (p articu larly A frican) do the heavy w ork; red­
heads notoriously a re restless. But unique am ong all lady specialists
is the Gifthd L ittle Lady known fa r and wide and fam iliarity as Aunt
Stella. She— who Ses All, Knows All and Tells All—stan d s preem i­
nent in her special field and occupies a uniuue position in the collec­
tive h eart of her Beloved Public. H er astonishing answ ers to questions
th a t perplex and baffle, here to be printed periodically, are a source
of constant inspiration and am azem ent. And every one of our readers
cordially is invited to p articip ate jn her w ell-m erited adoration. Editor.

We’re cutting
down our waiting list...every day
Right now, throughout the Pacific Coast, we
are installing thousands of telephones. Every ^
day our waiting list is being cut down.
Our rate of progress in completing our un- ’
filled orders is dependent upon the receipt of
the necessary equipment from our manufac­
turers who are going ahead as rapidly as pos­
sible in reconverting from all-out war produc­
tion to supplying our peacetime needs.
Still, it will take some time before we can
provide service for everyone who wants it.
Where the instrument itself is all that is needed,
we are well on our way to take off the waiting
list all such unfilled applications. But there are
many places where we will have to build com­
plicated switchboards . . . others where we will
have to put up entire new buildings.
You may be certain, though, that your tele­
phone is on the way and that we are doing
everything humanly possible to hurry the day
we bring it to you.
